- Welcome to another Kingston Kayak Club River Guide.
This guide covers the Tryweryn, from the Chipper down to Bala. This includes the National White Water Centre and the Lower Tryweryn. We've only focused on the main rapids, if you can cope with these then you'll manage the sections in between.
The usual release for the Tryweryn is 9 cumecs and this is what is showing in this video. We have annoyed each section of the river, names rapids and key points.

Best video of Treweryn there is (in terms of learning) - great filming and shows all the main features in an interesting and educational way
paul Griffiths thanks for the kind words.
Fantastic Video - many thanks for putting it all together. Gives a great idea of what to expect for each section.
Thanks 🙏
Great video, really professional and gives a clear overview and shows the layout of the rapids and features brilliantly!
Thank you for your lovely comments.
Really nice video. Recognised most of the main features. Will definitely watch again for tips before my next trip. Appreciate it.
Thanks for the kind comments. Love doing these video as it makes use of the hundreds of hours of video we seem to collect 😆
Nice video - the rock at the bottom of the rapid is 'everest' rather than the rapid itself. Then international wave before 'miss Davies bridge which you use by its alternative name when it comes up - which is cool. NRA/scaffold bridge is the wave before chapel falls. It's a really cool guide.
Great vid to visualise thankyou 👍
Glad you found it useful. Hopefully when we can get out as a club we’ll have more videos to put up 😬
@@KingstonKayakClub Havnt paddled for 3 years haha. I'm missing the ald trewy😁
Good luck with the club and Vids see you out there 👍
Great video for learning the lines and rapids! Do you know what release this was?
Thanks, it was 9 cumecs 👍
Great video. Many people I paddle with would say that the graveyard section starts with the drop next to the small building on river left. The 100m or so before that is pre-graveyard maybe? Or still the warm up section? Cheers.
Thanks 😊
Yeah, we just based it on “Grave Yard” slalom section. All these rivers have sooooo many different names. Take S Bend/Salmon Leap Falls/dog leg on the Tees 😂
Nice river/guide.course. I live in Oregon but am part Welch, so hey there friends. Any Bowens out there?
Diolch, we love paddling the rivers so making the guides is a good use of all the footage. We didn’t meet any Bowens.
i live in south wales and i know a few Bowens
@@judaslovelace974 Thanks, Aggie. When were able to travel again, Wales is at the top of my list and I'll try to figure out my "roots." Oh... to travel again!
What is an Egress?
The action of going out or leaving a place. Basically a posh was of saying get out 🤓
It is sad that treweryn used to be a village
Yeah, Capel Celyn was flooded in 1965 to provide drinking water for Liverpool.
